Milly's Monthly Heroine-Salma Hayek

Salma Hayek is not only an amazing actress, director, and producer. (I highly recommend the movies Frida and In The Time of The Butterflies, Salma plays Dominican revolutionary Minerva Mirabal. What a performance!)But she's also a super businesswoman, who created a wonderful beauty line that all women whether rich or poor can afford.

I have been so tired lately. For some reason Lil man keeps waking up every two hours like he's a newborn. It's driving me crazy. I didn't want to do that whole letting baby cry himself to sleep thing but honestly if i want to stay sane, I'm going to have to do it. When he decides to sleep during the day, I'm very busy watching TV doing housework so I can't sleep when he sleeps.lol. I'll let you know how letting him cry works out, but for now, let's talk beauty.

I recently was sent over some conditioner from a company called Essentious. The conditioner is from their Hydrate line. I'd never heard of this company, but I love trying independent brands. Some of the best products I've tried have been from smaller brands. Maybe it's because since their smaller, they pay more attention to detail and ingredients. Now, I was really drawn to their description "Natural and Organic Ingredients For Healthy Hair." Also their products DO NOT contain sulfates, mineral oils, parabens, silicones, or petroleum. Although I don't always use 100% natural products on Linette (name I gave for my hair) I do try to use products that are as natural as possible so I liked that they excluded a lot of useless ingredients from their product. Here are a few things I'll say about this conditioner. It's nice and thick and could easily be used as a deep conditioner, It contains Aloe Juice, Coconut Oil, Honey, Jojoba oil etc. I mean, we're talking some amazing ingredients. And this conditioner is no joke. I applied about a quarter amount and began working it through Linette. Immediately I noticed, it was really detangling and Linette felt so soft and smooth. After I styled her, she also looked INSANELY shiny. But, one of the best things about this conditioner- it smells like a CHERRY STARBUST!!! Yummmmmmmmmm! I have 3 cavities, due to my addiction to Starburst in high school. Although I haven't craved a Starburst since HS, this conditioner really made me want to run to the corner store and buy three packs. Mr. Milly couldn't stop smelling my hair. As you can see from the pic of the conditioner, I've used it a few times. I actually have it on Linette right now as a deep conditioner. After I finish rollersetting and drying Linette, today I'll take an after pic.

I haven't been really out since the snowstorm. Since I have to go out with a stroller, it's not that easy to move around. So yesterday I stayed home and created some home-made facials for my skin. Today I plan to venture out though and explore. Hopefully I won't trip and fall. It seems like every snow storm, I trip and fall, and I ALWAYS trip in front of large crowds who laugh at me. Oh well, I'll update you girls tomorrow.

The funny part is...I think we all slip! The slip and laughter is just a reminder of what they did last week! PLEEEASE for your sanity, your relationship and your baby...do the cry all night, 3 days max, it works! -no fail- that baby will be as good as new and everyone will be happier. PS. I cried those nights too, but it was allllll worth it in the end!
